Synopsis

"Secrets of Geranium" unveils the remarkable dual legacy of a plant that has served humanity both as a powerful medicinal herb and a cherished ornamental garden specimen. From ancient Roman physicians using geranium root extracts for wound healing to Egyptian healers incorporating its oils in sacred rituals, this versatile plant has maintained its significance across millennia.

 
The book masterfully weaves together archaeological evidence, historical medical texts, and modern scientific research to present a comprehensive understanding of geranium's journey from medicine chest to garden bed. The narrative progresses through three distinct sections, beginning with an exploration of geranium's botanical classification and native habitats. The text then delves into its fascinating medical applications throughout history, highlighting the plant's antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, which are now supported by contemporary scientific studies. The final section bridges the medicinal and ornamental aspects, demonstrating how growing conditions affect both therapeutic potency and aesthetic appeal.

 
Written in an accessible academic style, this work uniquely connects botanical science with medical history and modern gardening practices. It offers practical guidance for cultivating geraniums while exploring their biochemical properties that make them effective in traditional medicine. The book serves multiple audiences, from home gardeners seeking cultivation advice to medical historians interested in plant-based medicines, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of medicinal plants and horticultural practices.

    Maj. Gen. Gregg Martin cut a striking figure in the Army: athletic, quick witted, devout, and studious, he was a natural leader. Thanks to his engineering and leadership knowhow, Martin was chosen to lead the thousands of combat engineers who paved the way for 100,000 Army troops to battle their way to Baghdad in 2003. Only years later would he learn how the pressure of organizing dozens of simultaneous life-or-death missions each day altered the biochemistry of his brain. The Iraq War triggered what military and Veterans Administration psychiatrists ultimately diagnosed as late-onset bipolar disorder, a chemical imbalance that sends sufferers whipsawing between grandiose imaginings and suicidal depressions. His increasing erratic behavior led to his forced resignation as president of the National Defense University and ended his military career. 
     
     
      
    Bipolar General offers a candid account of Martin's personal journey with undiagnosed mental illness as he rose through the ranks of the United States Army. He discusses why his condition went undiagnosed for so long and explores what can be done both within and outside the armed forces to diagnose and treat mental illness. Bipolar General should be of value to those with mental illness and to the communities of family, friends, and caregivers surrounding them.
